I'm not so sure about the library vs framework agreement. Many packages that would historically be labeled libaries, now call themselves a framework, making it even harder for the real frameworks to stand out among the clutter.

- jedbrown 16y agoThere's certainly a continuum, almost any decent library can be extended by user code.
